Subject: [PATCH] binder: don't detect sender/target during buffer cleanup

When freeing txn buffers, binder_transaction_buffer_release()
attempts to detect whether the current context is the target by
comparing current->group_leader to proc->tsk. This is an unreliable
test. Instead explicitly pass an 'is_failure' boolean.

Detecting the sender was being used as a way to tell if the
transaction failed to be sent.  When cleaning up after
failing to send a transaction, there is no need to close
the fds associated with a BINDER_TYPE_FDA object. Now
'is_failure' can be used to accurately detect this case.

Fixes: 44d8047f1d87 ("binder: use standard functions to allocate fds")
